Good advice.
If you pay more than a week at a time, use a check.

I would check on that none of the centers I bowl in here accept credit cards for league dues.

I do remember asking them that when I signed up and they said all forms are accepted. Will have to check again. This is all new to me and there hasn't been much communication since then. There is a pre-league meeting set up first night so we'll see.
I've bowled in leagues in California, North Carolina, Ohio, and Nevada, and I've never heard of any league that accepts credit card payments.
My Tuesday night league here accepts CC/Debt payments for league dues. The league uses a "in house banking" system (one of the services the house offers leagues) instead of getting a "Outside" bank.
To pay you just tell them at the desk, they ring it up, swipe your card. They give you a receipt slip to put in the league envelope and one for your records and that's it.
Now if a league uses its own bank, you can't do it.

That makes sense, though most of the centers here use in-house banking and still don't take credit cards.
I'll bring my checkbook just in case. Don't really carry cash
I agree with the rest of the comments, most centers do not typically take credit cards for league payments, they have an ATM so people can get cash and they take checks. Mind you that's just for league and sanction fee's they take credit cards for almost all regular business transactions.
The reason is because you're not really paying the bowling center you're paying into your own league fund and then the league pays per game for the bowling and keeps the remaining money for Prizes, Awards, Banquet and so on.
Good accounting practices would suggest taking that money in and keeping track of non income dues and fees would be an unwanted nightmare for the bowling center.
